EIGHT WAYS TO MAKE IT YOURS

Customization Across Every Part of the Container

An OEM foil container is eight things at once — the size, the shape, the mold, the logo, the color, the lid, the inner coating and the outer packaging. Pick what you need and leave the rest to us; we tailor the rest to your filling line and your market.

01 · SIZE

Container Size & Capacity

Choose any size from 100 ml portion cups to 12,000 ml steam-table pans. We adjust diameter, depth, base size and stacking height to your filling line and your recipe weight.

  • 100–12,000 ml
  • Round / rect / square
  • Stock depths

02 · SHAPE

Shape & Mold

Pick from 200+ existing molds (round, rectangular, compartment, oval, baking, airline) or send a drawing for a new mold developed in our in-house mold workshop in around 60 days.

  • 200+ molds
  • New mold 60 days
  • You own the mold

03 · LOGO

Embossed or Printed Logo

Embossed (raised or recessed, ink-free) for premium and minimalist brands. Silk-screen or full-color heat transfer for branded food-service and retail lines. Both options carry your brand on every pack.

  • Embossed

04 · COLOR

05 · LID

Lid & Closure

Matched lids are tooled to your container rim: aluminum foil lid, paperboard lid, PET or PP dome lid, peelable film lidding and heat-seal film for ready meals — any of these can travel with the container.

  • Foil lid
  • Board / PET
  • Heat-seal film

06 · COATING

Inner Coating & Lacquer

Food-contact lacquer on the inner wall — standard, BPA-free, high-temperature or non-stick options for acidic, oily, saucy or baking applications. SGS tested for heavy metals and phthalates.

  • Food-grade
  • Non-stick
  • High-temp

07 · PRINT

Artwork & Print Detail

INCOTERMS THAT FIT YOUR BUSINESS

Ship Under Your Preferred Trade Term

We ship from our Zhengzhou factory under the incoterm that works for you. Tell us how you usually buy and we will quote on the same basis — no need to translate pricing into a model you do not use.

FOB — Free on Board

We deliver the goods on board the vessel at the named port of shipment (typically Qingdao / Shanghai / Ningbo). You arrange and pay for sea freight, insurance and destination clearance.

Best for: Buyers with their own freight forwarder or shipping line.

CIF — Cost, Insurance & Freight

We pay for cost, insurance and freight to your named destination port. You only handle destination clearance and last-mile delivery to your warehouse.

Best for: Buyers who want a single landed port price.

DDP — Delivered Duty Paid

We deliver the goods, cleared for import, to your named destination. We pay all duties, taxes and last-mile — you receive the shipment at your warehouse.

Best for: Samples; buyers who do not have a local customs broker.

EXW — Ex Works

Goods are made available at our Zhengzhou factory. You arrange pickup, export clearance, freight, insurance and import clearance yourself.

Best for: Buyers consolidating with other suppliers at the same origin.

LCL OR FCL — WE LOAD TO MATCH

LCL When You Are Not Yet at Full Container, FCL When You Are

Not every buyer fills a container. We pack LCL (loose cargo, consolidated with other buyers) for smaller orders and FCL (full 20GP / 40HQ) when you are ready, with pallet patterns optimized to your destination port.

LCL · LESS THAN CONTAINER LOAD

LCL — Consolidated with Other Buyers

Smaller orders share container space with other goods heading the same route. Pay only for the volume you take.

  • No minimum container volume
  • Best for sampling runs, restocking, new SKUs
  • Slightly longer transit than FCL
  • Carton count and weight optimized at origin
FCL · FULL CONTAINER LOAD

FCL — 20GP / 40HQ Dedicated Container

Full container loads run straight from our warehouse to your port. Pallets are loaded to your destination port rules and your receiving equipment.

  • 20GP: typically up to ~28 m³
  • 40HQ: typically up to ~68 m³
  • Pallet count and loading plan shared pre-shipment
  • Fumigated pallets and ISPM-15 export packing standard

SAMPLES · DDP WHERE POSSIBLE

Try It Before You Commit — DDP Samples Available

We send samples so you can test forming, lid fit, oven or seal performance before you commit to bulk. Stock samples can be delivered duty-paid (DDP) to many destinations so you do not need a customs broker just to evaluate a sample.

Stock Mold Samples

Plain samples from our 200+ mold library, in standard color and finish. Usually free; you only pay the courier cost. Shipped by DHL, FedEx, UPS or your nominated courier.

Custom Samples (Logo / Print)

Embossed, silk-screen or heat-transfer samples with your logo. Chargeable but the sample cost is deducted from your first bulk order. Lead time typically 10 – 20 days.

DDP & DDU Sample Shipping

For samples we can ship DDP (duty paid) to many destinations and DDU (duty unpaid) to the rest. We confirm the available option with your quote so you know the cost upfront.

OEM & CUSTOMIZATION FAQ

Questions Buyers Ask Before Placing an OEM Order

The twelve questions we hear most from importers, distributors and food brands evaluating ALKONCE for a custom aluminum foil container program.

What artwork file formats do you accept for OEM foil containers?

We accept AI, EPS, PDF, PSD and high-resolution JPG/PNG. Vector files (AI/EPS/PDF) give the cleanest silk-screen and heat-transfer print; raster files should be at least 300 dpi at the final print size. Our team will redraw simple text into curves and check color references before plate production.

Can you match a Pantone color for our printed foil containers?

Yes. For silk-screen and heat-transfer printing we match the closest Pantone-coated reference and confirm against a printed proof before bulk production. Gravure 9-color prints can also follow Pantone, with about 95% color accuracy under standard lighting.

What is your MOQ for custom printed aluminum foil containers?

MOQ depends on product and size. For stock molds with your logo (embossed or printed), typical MOQ is 50,000 – 100,000 pieces per design. For new molds plus print, the typical MOQ is 50,000 pieces but covers most cases once the mold is paid. We confirm the figure on the RFQ response.

How long does it take to produce a new custom mold?

A new custom mold from your drawing typically takes around 60 days in our in-house mold workshop. After production begins, the mold is owned by you and is stored for reorders, so repeat lead times drop to 15 – 25 days.

Who owns the mold once production starts?

Once the new-mold cost is paid, the mold is owned by you. We keep it in our mold library and reuse it for every reorder, so you do not pay tooling again on repeat orders and you get consistent forming.

Can I get free samples before placing an order?

Stock mold samples (plain, no logo) are usually free; you only pay the courier cost. Custom samples with your embossed or printed logo, or a new mold sample, are chargeable but the sample cost is deducted from your first bulk order. We can ship samples by DHL, FedEx, UPS or your nominated courier, with DDP (delivered duty paid) available for many destinations.

What lead times should I plan for a custom order?

Stock mold with your logo: 20 – 30 days after artwork approval. Stock mold + full-color print: 30 – 50 days. New mold + print: 45 – 75 days (60 days for the mold, plus sampling and bulk). All timelines run from artwork and sample sign-off, not from inquiry.

What trade terms can you ship under?

We ship under FOB, CIF, CFR, DDP and EXW from our Zhengzhou factory. For sea we can book LCL (consolidated with other buyers' goods) or FCL (full 20GP / 40HQ). For samples we usually ship by courier, with DDP (duty paid) available to many destinations.

What payment terms do you accept?

Standard terms are 30% T/T deposit on order confirmation, 70% balance against the copy of B/L (or paid before shipment if you prefer). For long-term cooperation we can discuss L/C at sight, OA for approved buyers, or other arrangements.

Can we arrange a third-party inspection before shipment?

Yes. We welcome SGS, TÜV, Bureau Veritas or Intertek inspections at our Zhengzhou factory before loading. Inspection costs are paid by the buyer; we cooperate with full production records, batch inspection reports and retained samples so the visit goes smoothly.

What is the HS code for aluminum foil containers and will you put it on documents?

Aluminum foil containers for food packing are typically classified under HS code 7615.10 (table, kitchen or other household articles of aluminum). We put the HS code on the commercial invoice and packing list so your customs broker can clear the shipment without delay.

What packaging can you provide for export?

Standard export packing is inner poly bags + master export cartons on fumigated wooden pallets with stretch wrap. We also do private label master cartons (printed with your brand), retail-ready inner boxes, and pallet/carton configurations optimized for 20GP / 40HQ container loading.
